Default Swapped cams and now the car is running like **** need some help

Ok Guy's I have a Y7 bottom end with a Z6 Head (running good)
I swapped the Z6 cam and cam gear and put a Y8 Cam and Cam gear in.
Now for somereason it is only running on cylinders 2 and 4 all of the plugs are getting spark just put new plugs in and the it timing is set right.
On a p2p ECU it throws a 9 which is cylinder sensor

Anyone got and sugestions?

hmmm, try getting another z6 cam and cam gear and put it in and see what happens if the same problem occurs then its not the y8 cam and cam gear if the problem goes away stay with the z6 cam and cam gear or get after market ones.
